As for breakouts, are you cleaning your brushes? I wonder if spritzing some of the Tea Tree Water on them would work as a quick clean-up or sterilizer, similar to the BE Quick Clean cleaner? Sometimes people think it's the makeup breaking them out and it's either dirty brushes. Or, you may be sensitive to the hair used for the brushes and switching to Smashbox or Japonesque brushes might be better for you?
Yes yes!! Cleaning brushes every week is very important. Not doing so will help the growth of bacteria and thus encourage breakouts. There are several good products you can use to clean your brushes: brush cleaner (any will do but make sure the solution is dry on the brushes before applying to your face), baby shampoo, any regular liquid hand soap. My personal favorite is the Tea tree oil facial wash from The Body Shop. Tea tree oil has natural anti-bacterial properties.

AOIIalum--where do you find tea tree water?
